Burnt Toast

Earth/Kin Controller was my main for almost 8 years of playing CoH. Here is the build I used to use. While it is not particularly high in defense or resistance (It's a controller people)... it does quite well on it's own. Between all the controls that Earth has as well as the Kinetic and Fire Blast powers... it is quite capable of handling everything. No Purple or PvP IOs were used!

You should see the character on your select screen. It will probably say it has been offline 7000+ days. Click it.. then in the upper right hand corner click the DELETE CHARACTER icon... delete it and remake it.

I am not able to login right now - not at home. Screenshot?

These are just growing pains - remember Torchbearer is only a week old and Excelsior...a day old. The team is working on getting things resolved so that wait times are way more reasonable. It will get better in the coming days/weeks :)

[eyeroll] Or... the team had no idea there would be such a high demand for the game and are doing everything they can within their resources to compensate. Maybe instead of being all DOOOM! you could actually look at it from a more realistic and less hyperbolic standpoint. They took the servers down at around 1:30pm UT to add a patch … it literally corrupted the code - they had to completely rebuild the game (although the database remained unaffected) … servers were down for about 5 hours and since coming back up they have been unstable … I suspect they will completely collapse any time now … it was a valiant effort but I do not think this team will be able to keep things going. Sadly. :(

Did you actually go to the spot here GAME ACCOUNT - and create a Game Account? Your game and forum accounts are different (unless you intentionally create both of them to be the same user/password).

Hitting 50 for the first time. It was on my Empathy/Electric Defender - Fixxer. I was playing late that night and when I hit 50 I remember screaming (ok saying loudly).. "YES!!!" My husband was sleeping in the next room (Our home office was next door to the bedroom) - he got up and asked me what was going on. When I told him I hit 50... he got a little jealous because his main character was 48. So he stayed up and we played for a few more hours until he hit 50. Fixxer was always my main character even though I ended up with several 50+++ characters. Fixxer is also the first character I created on this new server (albeit he is Empathy/Fire on Torchbearer and Empathy/Ice on Excelsior).

I had never played an MMO before I played City of Heroes. I still remember seeing a tv commercial (yep) and I immediately went and told my husband (ex-husband now) "I want to play this game." So I went to WalMart at like 10:30pm and bought the game. After installation he sat beside me showing me...how to move. Instructing me on how to talk to contacts etc. I was immediately hooked and played from that day in May 2004 until November 30, 2012. I had many characters who were level 50+++. I made many friends along the way. I went from being a complete noob to a respected min/maxer who made builds for numerous friend's characters. I remember when the announcement came... I was at work on lunch break scrolling through Facebook and there it was... the announcement I sat there dumbfounded and confused. I immediately texted my CoH friends and it was like telling them someone had died. When I logged on that evening...the mood was somber...and eerily quiet. Immediately I saw friends leaving...out of anger and grief. The last time we all got together was for a 24 hour marathon for ExtraLife on 10/20/2012. After that people faded away.... I remember standing atop City Hall with a few friends...torches held...until we saw that prompt that we had been forcibly removed from the server at sunset. We sat on Skype talking for 4-5 hours about everything we had done in CoH. We tried other games, but never found anything even remotely to our liking. We held out hope...as our lives changed. People got married, divorced, had children, and sadly a few have since passed away. when I first logged back in to the first test server a few weeks ago...I just stood there staring at City Hall...remembering the friends from years ago and wishing that we could all be together again doing speed ITFs or iTrials. Thank you for bringing this game back. It has brought back some sadness for those who have been lost...but it has also brought a lot of happiness and hope for things to come. You have given me back something I thought I would never have again...for that I have no words. Blessed be.

You are welcome to leave - we sure will miss your sunny disposition though. (sarcasm)

I think people fail to remember this is not some company with millions to spend on servers etc. This whole endeavor with Torchbearer etc is... a week old. There are going to be quite a few bumps in the road ahead - you can either recognize this and deal with them... or complain that the free game you you haven't spent a dime on in over 6 years isn't everything you want it to be. I was super excited about double xp weekend. I managed to get one toon from 8 to 12 and another toon from 2 to 12. Not exactly a lot of play time on a double xp day hahaha. But while I waited I spent time on the new MIDs working on builds for future characters. The whole negativity from some people baffles me. The code is out there - if you think you can do better you do have the option of running your own server. I will patiently wait for things to improve... I waited 6.5 years - a few days or weeks is not that big of a deal... especially since it's not costing me anything. I guess I was taught to be more grateful for things than some people....

Which is why I said "insinuating" someone is stupid.... you stated their actions were stupid - not far off from calling the person themselves stupid. A modicum of civility goes a long way. No one is actually hurt and like I said - recovering deleted toons is not a difficult process. And why the hell would you delete someone else's character? There was a lvl1 character named Doctor Red right where my previous character was that I deleted. I had no idea who the fuck Doctor Red is but I deleted him. Be a real shame if an angry Doctor Red got a hold of your level 50s in the near-future. >_> The action itself is stupid, nobody is calling anoyne else names...yet.

You may want to cool down and try to remain civil. I doubt they will do a rollback. Deleted characters can easily be recovered. Insinuating that someone is stupid is not needed.

I think the concept of a Sentinel is a more independent Defender/Corruptor. I have been messing around with quite a few builds. I think I want to try at least two Sentinels...and one of them is Nrg/Nrg. My Nrg/Nrg Sentinel is soft capped to all types except Psi. I did not sacrifice damage or accuracy in my build. I did not use any purples in my build. End is also not an issue even without the +end benefit of Energize. I know a lot of people do not like Nrg blast due to knockback, but it can be used as a method of protection and when used properly can not be disruptive to a team. I have not decided on my second Sentinel... I am thinking either Ice/Ice or Fire/Fire.

Same. I am working on my builds while waiting for servers to come back online.

I'm just working on my builds in MIDS to pass the time. Wonder if the MIDS people are still around? Would like to see Sentinels in MIDS so I could work on my build.

City of Heroes was my first MMO - started a few days after launch. Played it non-stop util sunset (got my second account in early 2015). I have tried other MMOs but did not like any of them. I am not an MMO player.. I am a CoH Player.

Not sure what is going on - I'm here for the double xp dang it LOL!

From everything they have posted... both servers are intended to be "regular" servers. It's the origin that most easily explains any power combinations. No science or tech or genetics requiring a backstory or explainations, just one word: Magic. Done. Easy. Or at least that's my theory.

I ran the SG Fruit Salad on Freedom :)

I was not a big fan of the controller changes when it came to pets. Pets used to expire and have to be re-spawned. If you were a fire controller you could; with enough recharge, have up to 18 imps a one time. When containment was introduced that all changed and pets were permanent (unless defeated) and could not be double cast any more. I grew to like the changes though. There were very few changes in hindsight that I didn't like. I was actually quite supportive of ED because I knew that IOs were changing (Invention system was coming). With nearly 100% acc/dam/rech/end/heal/stun duration... I felt way more powerful than pre-ED.

I actually copied a lot of characters to Snetinel. Sentinel was meant to bring back characters if the IP was sold right after the shutdown... not 6.5 years later. Many people who did Sentinel copies do not have theirs any more. Many more people never did copy their characters over. Even though I have a dozen of my levl 50+++ characters saved... I do not think it would be fair to anyone if that data was able to be used and Poof new level 50 character. Not sure why people want Sentinel characters - you would think after nearly 6.5 years they would actually just want to play the game and level up their characters. As a Sentinel user... I cannot support a very select minority being able to utilize such tools to basically powerlevel multiple characters.

They took it down a bit ago for maintenance.

I Burnt The Toast was my main character. Originally a Fire/Dark Corruptor, but switched to Fire/Time when Time Manipulation hit live. I had a lot of characters on Freedom... 18 level 50++ - Mainly Corruptors and Defenders. My first 50 was an Emp/Elect Defender: Fixxer Upper - my main for 3-4 years was my Earth/Kin Controller. I actually have no clue what my @global was - I changed it around 4-5 years after starting.
